    AZERBAIJANI POLITICAL PARTIES SUPPORT TURKEY WITH REGARD TO LATEST PROCESSES

    Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
    Oct 22 2007

    "All states should support Turkey in anti-terror operations," deputy
    executive secretary of New Azerbaijan Party (YAP) Mubariz Gurbanli
    told APA. He said that Azerbaijan has always supported Turkey in all
    the issues and will continue to support the brother state.

    "The US government states that Turkey should solve this problem with
    Iraqi government. But I think that, if the US has declared fight
    against terrorism as its first policy, it should understand and defend
    it," he said.

    Chairman of Citizen Solidarity Party, MP Sabir Rustamkhanli noted that
    support of the Armenian genocide in the US, George Bush's protesting
    to Turkish Army's entering Northern Iraq and Barzani and Talabani's
    threatening Turkey are connected with one another.

    "At last, Turkish parliament passed a right decision. Unfortunately,
    Turkish present pro-American government still awaits the US's advice,"
    he said.

    Sabir Rustamkhanli considers that Azerbaijan should give only moral
    support to Turkey concerning this issue.

    "Turkey does not need other support," he said.

    "PKK terrorists are carrying out terrorist acts against Turkey from
    the territories under the control of the US. The US should neutralize
    them in its territories, or should not impede Turkey. Unfortunately,
    the US does not fulfill its duties and tries to refrain Turkey from
    carrying our military operations," leader of Azerbaijan National
    Independence Party Etibar Mammadov told APA. He said that Turkey has
    the right to carry out military operations against PKK and it is in
    line with the international norms.

    "PKK is a dangerous terrorist grouping for the region. Azerbaijan
    should support Turkey," he said.

    Chairman of Azerbaijan Popular Front Party Ali Karimli noted that
    over 30,000 people were killed as a result of PKK's actions. Noting
    that there are a lot of approaches with regard to PKK in the world,
    the party chief said as a result of it Turkey is obliged to fight
    face to face against PKK.

    "The countries of the world stated the importance of civil countries'
    joint fight against terrorism. Turkey has the right to take severe
    measures and attack on the military base of a grouping. Strategic
    alliance between Azerbaijan and Turkey should be demonstrated in
    the solution of daily problems. Azerbaijan and Turkey should have
    intensive talks over this situation," he said. As to the position of
    US in this issue, Ali Karimli stated that US chairs struggle coalition
    against terrorism.

    "US should demonstrate principal approach to all terror organizations,"
    he said.

    Chairman of Musavat Party Isa Gambar regards decisions made by Turkish
    government, Grand National Assembly of Turkey and President on struggle
    against terrorism necessary.

    "Struggle should be carried out against terrorism and severe measures
    should be taken against PKK. Azerbaijan should support Turkey in this
    issue," he said.

    As to the position of US, Party chairman underlined that this state
    made sound statements against terrorism.

    "But US had to react operatively to this issue when Turkey raised
    an issue regarding PKK. But US did not react so, and it caused death
    and injury of hundreds of people," he said.

    Chairman of Azerbaijan Democratic Party Serdar Jalaloglu underlined
    that no any country of the world publicly support terrorism.

    "Turkey should clear those forces. Azerbaijan, Turkey and all
    anti-terror coalition states should support Turkey," he said.

    Chairman of Umid Party, MP Igbal Agazadeh underlined that PKK was
    a threat for the whole region. This organization can cause problems
    for the great projects in the region.

    "Turkey, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Iran can be involved here. The region
    states should take joint measures for preventing this threat," he said.

    Chairman of Great Establishment Party Fazil Gazanfaroglu stressed
    that Turkey's starting military operations is a main step and Turkey
    should continue it.

    "Azerbaijan should support Turkey in this issue," he said.
